Investors may interpret the current correction in cryptocurrencies as a long overdue pullback and purchasing opportunity. The equity markets sold off sharply on Feb. 24 and 25. Even gold, a traditional safe-haven has stalled its rally. On similar lines, cryptocurrencies are also witnessing a period of correction.  The total crypto market capitalization has dropped from about $308 billion on Feb. 15 to $248 billion at press time, which is a fall of about 19.50%. For an investor, this is a normal and healthy correction, which can provide an opportunity to…

Many cryptocurrencies are struggling to break above their overhead resistances, which could result in a minor correction or consolidation in the next few days. The global equity markets are reeling under pressure as the coronavirus outbreak has spread outside China. While gold, the traditional safe haven, has been moving higher, Bitcoin has largely remained range-bound. This again puts focus on the frequently discussed perspective that Bitcoin is a completely uncorrelated to traditional markets. Sometimes it rallies with the equity markets and other times with gold but during certain occasions, such…

The current pullback has resolved the overbought state of many cryptocurrencies and after a few days of consolidation the uptrend is likely to resume. After Bitcoin (BTC) scaled above $10,000 the mood among market participants turned hugely bullish. Daily talks of the asset making new highs blanketed crypto Twitter and this bullish sentiment also rubbed off on altcoins which picked up momentum and rallied sharply in the past few days. As the week approached a close it was clear that the crypto market was looking overheated in the short-term as…

A deeper correction may have to wait as many major cryptocurrencies are looking strong and their uptrend is likely to continue. Interest in Bitcoin (BTC) has surged significantly after its rally above $10,000 and if the bulls can sustain the price above this psychological level, it is likely to attract further attention. While it is difficult to pinpoint the exact reason for this resurgence, a host of factors such as the China coronavirus scare, the upcoming Bitcoin halving, discussion of launching a central bank digital currency by various countries, and…

The crypto markets are in a strong bull trend but the rally could hit rough weather as the uptrend begins to look overextended. The total crypto market capitalization has topped $300 billion for the first time since early-August of 2019. This shows that the bulls are back in action. Interestingly, it is not only the crypto markets that have been moving up, even the US stock markets have been making new lifetime highs in 2020.  Currently, the Dow Jones index is currently close to 29,500 points. However, Fundstrat Global Advisors…

The bulls are not waiting for a deeper correction before buying, which shows that the momentum remains strong and the uptrend intact. A report by investment management firm VanEck shows that Bitcoin can greatly improve the “risk and return reward profile of institutional investment portfolios.” The research shows that even a small allocation to Bitcoin in a portfolio mix of 60% equity and 40% bonds enhanced the cumulative return.  The best portfolio return was seen with an investment of 3% in Bitcoin, 58.5% in equity and 38.5% in bonds. When…

Most major cryptocurrencies are nearing stiff resistance levels, which can result in a few days of consolidation or a minor correction. The institutional investors have maintained their bullish stance on Bitcoin. Though the spot price is yet to hit $10,000, CME Bitcoin futures have already reached the five-figure mark. Additionally, the Bitcoin futures open interest on BitMEX has topped $1.5 billion. This shows that the institutional traders expect the rally to extend further. Morgan Creek Digital Co-Founder Anthony Pompliano meanwhile has said that his idea of Bitcoin acting as a…
